Are there no intimations of the spectacle being opposed (Debord, 1967) as the emperor is shown to have no clothes? Perhaps the answer lies in the social and cultural milieu and in the focus of sustainability. The Emergence of the Social Policy Case for Events While the study of distinct events-related phenomena has grown significantly since the late 1980s, there remains a knowledge gap in understanding of the social impact of events and festivals on host communities and beyond. Over recent years much more academic attention has been paid to whether the needs of direct and indirect ‘beneficiaries’ (Whitson and Horne, 2006) are being adequately served by the furtherance of events-led urban strategies.

1. First, we have the stage of events management. This stage works at a purely instrumental level. Reflecting on practical experience, it reaches general conclusions about what works organizationally and it essentially produces a ‘how to’ approach.

This stage is replete with a veritable avalanche of published materials reflecting the need to underpin the academic study of a new field as demand for higher education courses grows at an exponential rate.

Creating appropriate structures is crucial here so that the usual suspects do not continue to feel marginalized as cities pursue events-led strategies. The challenge for local political leaders is to consider whether the existing networks and avenues to participation open to the city’s citizens are effective.
